Are t.v. court shows stupid?
Every time I come home, my mom or step dad or aunt is watching a court show on t.v., for example Judge Joe Brown. I think they are very stupid and a court is a court, it should be private and is no one elses buisness but the jury, judge, and the two case takers. I would understand my aunt watching them though because she is a lawyer.
Anyway, do you think that t.v. court shows are stupid?

I would marry Judge Judy if she would have me.
Stupid, yet entertaining.
Guilty as charged, NEXT!!
Actually @astrix24, Court proceedings are rarely private affairs. I have the right as an American Citizen to walk into any courthouse in America and read the transcripts of any case that took place. There are exceptions, but other than juvenile cases, they are supposed to be few and far between.
It was set up this way so that the average citizens can keep an eye on what the courts are doing.
I don’t watch the TV court shows, but I love the fact that they are shown.
It’s the New-York-Jew-osity.
They can be stupid, but they can also be great learning tools. Hopefully when people watch the show they learn that they should: always get used cars inspected, get I.O.U.s from people they are lending money to and that they should get things in writing.
And, never, ever co-sign on a loan for anyone.
And don’t loan a guy money that you just met 2 weeks ago.
That is still living with his “ex” wife.
and needed the money for his DUI fines
But was given the money as a gift, not a loan.
Eggs Ackley. will you marry me?
Yes, if I don’t have to give the ring back if we break up.
but what if I’m still paying off the loan and I caught you in bed with my former best friend?
You mean the one that is now dating your cousin? No, I’m keeping the ring. It was a gift given to me around my birthday, give or take a month or two.
Well, he was your former best friend. Why are you bitchin’? Beside, you took the dog.
@chyna But doesn’t the jeweler have to pay for the stone that fell out?
Yes, but that’s another lawsuit. It’s in with the paternity case.
dogs are people, too. except pitbulls, which have a mechanical jaw.
But the twins were conjoined so how do you separate it?
Pitbulls they blame on the owners.
Put the owners to sleep, keep the pitbulls.
put on your listening ears. pitbulls can’t help it, that’s just how their jaw was constructed.
This court is my playground, I’ll do the talking.
I think you have a point, my friend’s pitbull killed two or three cats and he was a good one.
@chyna You’re very sassy all of a sudden, you’ve been hanging out with us (or Judge Judy) too much!
do you think you’re going to tawk ovah me? whose microphone do you think they’ll cut? mine?
they don’t keep me here because I’m 5’6” and gawgeous
@dpworkin You have me snorting laughing.
@janbb It’s judge Judy. She brings out the sassy in me.
They keep me here cause I’m 5’ 1” and gawgeous.
i’m not done abusing you yet. I’m still having fun
When will that time come? Not in the nursing home, I know.
Maybe so, but I love them! But not Joe Brown. He’s really unfair, IMO.
I forget…which one is the beautiful one? Judge Judy? What’s the other gal’s name?
Personally I like the People’s Court and Judge Marilyn Milian. She seems the most fair. I don’t like Judge Judy as she too shrieky and cranky for me.
Yes. And a waste of time watching. Watch something worthwhile like…Dr. Who.
No no. Marey or Springer! Much more better class!
They are very entertaining. I don’t think stupid is the word I would use, more like irrelevant.
I actually think that if I ever had to go to court, having watched those shows would help me to understand how important being polite and quiet and having your freaking evidence in hand is!
@Val123 And dressing properly. Where did you think you were going, to a tea party?
I loves it – finally figured out a way to make money from Fluthering!
Oh no – you’re not appealling at all!
So Judge Judy and I concur – pay up, kiddo! (And interest accrues daily.)
I already knew you were interested.
As Judge Judy: No files allowed, not even appealing ones. Further, interest accrues by the minute. You now owe $11.84. Pay up @dpworkin or I’ll find you contemptible and you will go to fluther jail.
Flirtery will get you nowhere.
she was talkin to @dpworkin. Judge Judy recuses herself as there are obviously some undercurrents at work that that I know nothing about. But you are up to $12.48, dp.
HA HA! Looky what I just found on CNN!
She is actually somewhat terrifying.
I actually think you and Judge Judy together would be quite a pair, @dp.
You’d hear the screamin’ all the way to Kansas!!! Did you see my link? About Judge Judy beat Oprah out for most watched day time show?! :))
hahahahahahahaha! Yoou guys are way too funny
I think it’s stupid – why would anyone want to fight it out on TV anyway? Nah ah.
It’s just like Jerry Springer, except the people are fighting in court. Some matters are best not discussed on national tv. I saw this one episode on Judge Judy where this woman was suing another woman for selling her two PICTURES of cell phones on Ebay. I think all she was suing for was a little over two hundred dollars. I would never go on tv and make an idiot of myself.
